Rigondeaux agreed to terms, why Donaire don't sign the fight?

[PAC-BOY]

LMAO

Hopefully its just final negotiations over small details or money. If Arum pulls out Vic I will be livid all round and wont be able to defend the choice. From Rigo & Mares to Vic is a world apart

I wanna think positive and believe....or just be naive lol. Please Arum dont screw us

Arum screwed so many fights up...its hard to excited about any fight concerning a top rank fight...even Manny!

. Donaire does not force his opponents to undergo random testing - unlike Mayweather

He simply requested that Rigo take the tests (like his previous 2 opponents) but its completely optional

heres a direct qoute from donaire himself speaking about getting rigo to take the test in order to secure a fight with him.


"Random is good, so we can help clean boxing's reputation. If they want to request me to fight them, then I have a request for them to fight fair. It's an even trade,"





you were saying????????

"Random is good, so we can help clean boxing's reputation. If they want to request me to fight them, then I have a request for them to fight fair. It's an even trade,"

he asked nishioka to do VADA testing and nishioka's team turned it down, but the fight still happened....

He has since offered the same type of VADA random testing to Toshiaki Nishioka, who he fights Oct. 13 in Carson, Calif. According to donaire, Nishioka's team has not yet decided whether they would agree to do it.

I think he also asked Mathebula as well...

"He [mathebula] is welcome to do it, but I don't force anyone to do it," Donaire said. "If he agrees to it, the whole boxing body needs to know about it. I invite them to join, but most importantly, I want my fans to know what I am doing."

If it doesn't happen, there will be exactly 750 thousand reasons why it didn't happen.

Why? All Donaire has to do is agree and he gets his biggest purse to date and rigo gets his 750k. Which HBO doesnt mind paying, what is your point?

you just posted meaningless links. thats not even the point of the argument. the point is "is donaire trying to force rigo to take the test" this is the debate. not what donaire sent to nishioka (as a optional protocol)


& By this quote


"If they want to request me to fight them, then I have a request for them to fight fair. It's an even trade,"


in other words he's saying if they want the fight with him they should be ready to take the test to ensure a fair fight.


theres no other way that you can put that.

He could possibly get a bigger purse with the money saved not fighting Rigo.

When Ricky Burns asked 750k to fight Broner, everyone agreed this was Burns pricing himself out. Not sure how this is any difference.

Rigo and his manager said that they alredy have the contract..top rank won't send a contract to only one fighter..if the contract don't get signed it won't be because of Arum..

it's a request...like he requested nishioka to do extra testing with him and nishioka's team turned it down..but the fight still happened.

it's not like he demanded that they do extra testing with him...

[MJ223]

I don't think either side has signed.......

At least I haven't seen anything
